With months of warning, NAND Flash memory prices are starting to rise and we will soon face a dantesque crisis as of mid-2018, when the cost of acquiring SSD or RAM will increase significantly.
Therefore, any offer worthy of his salt in these difficult times is welcome, and if it is as important a component as a high-end SSD, it is the best.
Crucial BX500 960 GB: Previous disclosure of the brand is disappearing
SSDs are still more expensive than HDDs at the same price, of course, but it's also true that performance can do nothing between the two, as well as the consumption and the temperature. And that a strong regional drive like this Cru BX500 doubles the performance of a traditional hard drive to the same degree.
With offers from Amazon, we can buy it for less than 100 euros, an affordable price and one that will boot up our PC when we come from a traditional hard drive.
And it will do so in accordance with the most convincing literacy rates (540 MB / s and 500 MB / s respectively, Amazon is incorrect in its interpretation), thanks to its SMI SM2259XT host, which fits exactly the memory type embedded in this SSD and signed by Micron ( 3-bit TLC and 96 layers).
Great resilience and assurance, an essential element for every user
The robustness and reliability of SSDs has long been questioned, but fortunately and after several years of progress this is no longer a problem, far from it. Crucial offers 240 TBW of this type of model, which most would take us years to find with a 24/7 SSD and still, the product version also offers a three-year warranty.
This is more than enough given the quality of the controller, the types and cells used and the TBWs obtained and certified by the manufacturer.
Amazon does not limit the number of units available for this offer, but as is often the case with SSDs, they will end up flying in a few hours, because offers count toward one hand prescription after a month.
So we recommend that you do not take too long to decide to buy it, because maybe when you refresh the page you will get "out" of the stock, it would not be the first and not the last time it happened, because although such a sale doesn't happen It is surprising and encouraged to replace this model with 1 TB logically, no manufacturer is currently performing the NAND Flash class.
